Jared Richey Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Not Reproduced. You either have to have yours restored or rechromed which will run $500-800 for the set OR an NOS GM set $$$$. Or find a good driver qualtiy used one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maasai2 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Austin do you have a 71 or 72? Cause that piece you're asking about is specific to the 72. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monte70car Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I'm wondering if it was brought in the fall of 71? By any chance do you have a picture of the front? Also in 72 they put a letter in the vin for the motor size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
